Free Betting Pick: San Jose State Spartans -8
The San Jose State Spartans have dominated the number against the New Mexico Lobos as of recent as they have covered the spread in 4 consecutive meetings. The San Jose State Spartans have had some tough games to open the season, but the game that stands out to me is their win over the SEC Arkansas Razorbacks. The Spartans have been battle-tested to start the season, and I have been very impressed with their offense to start the season as QB Josh Love has been impressive with 1013 yards and 5 TDs compared to only 1 interception. The Lobos have been very bad on the offensive side of the ball and they proved that against Liberty as they were only able to tally 10 points. San Jose State isn’t very good on the defensive side of the ball, but they should be confident to stop New Mexico at home. Final Score Prediction, San Jose State Spartans win and cover ATS 34-24.
